Work of Local Artists Feature of Display.

An exhibition of Maritime art. the first of its kind to be held in Charlottetown, was officially open- ed last. night at the Harris Mem- orial Gallery by Premler Campbell. A feature of the exhibition which is under the auspices of the P. E. I. Art Society is the display of works of Charlottetown artists.

P:emier Campbell in opening the exhibition congratulated the mem- bers of the society “on your suc- cess in promoting final-‘things which have been all too much neglected in this hustling new country of North America."

Europeans, the Pi-ernler said. were in close proximity to living art which had been the work of centuries. Art was a very important side of the education of any coun- try. - Premier Campbell also extended his congratulations to the Society on having attained the first birth- day. The stimulus it had given art during the first year of its exist- ance and the stimulus it would give such work during the coming year would be very important in the life of Prince Edward Island, the Premier concluded.

Mrs. P. A. Creelman. president of the Art society. presided. In her introductory remarks she told of the causes leading to the formation of the Society here last spring. “We met for study once a month,” Mrs. Creelman continued. "and some of us met on Tuesday evenings at Mrs. Gass‘s studio for drawing from life.

“We have been fortunate in hav. ing a fire-proof art gallery, with- out which we would be unable to bring traveling exhibitions to Charlottetown and I also take this opportunity to express our gratit- ude for the library and to Miss Bateson for her help in obtaining books.

"Six years ago there was in the library one mutilated old book on art and its contents were both

Newspapers Criticized In Judgment Hand- ed Down By N. B. Supreme Court. '

(C. P. by Guardian’: Specs! Wire) FREDERZCTON, N. B.. April 24 —“The conviction must be affirm- ed and the appeal dismissed." said a Judgment handed down today by the appellate division of the New Brunswick Supreme Court in the appeal of Arthur Bannister, con- demned to hang on June 20 with his brother, Daniel, for the murder of Philip Lake. "The learned trial judge told the jury it was murder or nothing. We think he was entirely right,” said the‘full bench judgment read by Chief Justice .1. B. M. Baxter. Defence counsel H. Murray Lambert has indicated he will fyle a notice of appeal in the case of Daniel but this has yet to be received by the registrar of the

Supreme Court. ~

“There was no circumstance im- plicating Frances Bannister (sister of Arthur and Daniel) as an ac- complice in the crime of murder," the jlldgmzrlt said at one point. Frances was the crowns chief witness and told of events at Pac- ific Junction the night of Jan. 5 when Lake and his common law wife were murdered before their young son died from exposure out- side their burned home.

The other child, an infant nam- ed Betty., was kidnapped and is now in the hands of relatives. Mrs.‘ Mary Barm'ster. mother of the condemned brothers,.was sentenced to a penitentiary term of three and a half years for harboring the little girl.

Criticism of provincial newspap- ers was contained in the judgment with respect to one of Mr. Lam. bert's contentions—that the jury had been influenced by publi- cation of alleged confessions.

D Empire Trade

(c_ P. By Guardian's Special Wire)

0’I'1‘AWA, April 24——Canadn's in- creasing trade within the British Empire is one of the features of 1935 says the weekly review of the Trade and Commerce Department.

An analysis of 1935 trade figures, just released. shows that 51-8 P9’ cent, of Cana.da.’s exports went to the Empire, the highest percentase since the war-time concentration of exports to Great Britain.

On the-other hand, 31.8 per cent of Canada's imports came flom Empire countries which was the highest for any year, with but one exception, since the beginning of the century. Exports to the Empire last year totalled $377,845,000, an increase of 342227.000 or 12.6 per cent over 1934 while imports in- creased by $16,822,000 or 10.7 per cent, to $173,889,000.

Canadian exports to the United Kingdom increased by $33,010,000 and to the other Empire countries by 89,217,000 while the increase in imports from the United Kingdom was $3,254,000 and from other ‘Em- pire countries 513.568.0041 '1‘f3de with Australia during 1935 showed a marked improvement over the preceding year. imports being 17 per cent higher and exports 35 per cent higher. Canadian imports from British South Africa increased 6'1 per cent and exports by 9 Per cent. Imports from New zcalandl were slightly lower than in 1934 but exports showed an increase of 24 per cent.

Similarly figures from the United Kingdom for the past 12 years show 1935 to have been the peak for Empire trade in that country. Imports from the Empire totalled £281,8ti6000 or 37.63 per cent of to- tal imports and ‘omestic exports

paring 1935 with 1931 United King- dom imports from the Empire in- creased by l5.li per cent and ex- ports by 19.71 per cent. British purchases from Canada in 1935 constituted 7.40 per cent of all im- ports as compared with only 3.81 per cent in 1931. Exports to the Dominion represented 5.02 per cent and were slightly lower than the 5.20 per cent five years previous. although the volume of exports had increased by 4.07 per cent.

ince," said the Judgment, "and while the trial record shows that the learned judge disapproved of the Journalistic methods which were being pursued, yet it is too much to asume that there exist- ed a widespread public hostility to the prisoner which would render the County of Westmoreland an undesirable place for his trial. The Jury were carefully examined on challenge and we see no reason to think that the improper news- paper publications affected the mind of any member of that body. "By refusing to consider this as a ground of appeal we are not condoning what was undoubtedly in many insturzccs an offerce zig- ainst the administration of Jus- tice. and desire to express the hope that should there be a rep- etition of this conduct in any case. counsel for the crown will‘ bring .the matter to the attention of the court, so that trials may be con- ducted in an atmosphere much more like that of the mother country. where too enterprising journalists are severely dealt with."
